Fête de la Musique, one of the most anticipated live music events in the country, is back for another year of celebrating all kinds of tunes. This time, Shangri-La Plaza is joining the revelries and supporting the Fête community for the first time ever as it mounts _The Ember Stage_, promising performances that flicker with warmth, intimacy, and artistic fire. Don’t miss this one-of-a-kind experience all for free and see the Grand Atrium transform into an urban oasis on June 13 from 5PM to 10PM.

Leading the lineup of young and fresh music for the Fête stage at the Shang is Over October, one of the most prominent pop/alternative rock bands today. Then, there’s Filipino-Nepalese R&B singer-songwriter Jason Dhakal.

With over 564,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, he made his mark in the industry with his soulful, jazz-infused, and groovy renditions of OPM classics.

jikamarie joins the pack with her own brand of R&B-dream pop. With her undeniable talent, she was also tapped to open for Coldplay at their Philippine Arena concert in January 2024. Singer-songwriter and The Voice Kids alum Shanne Dandan is dedicated to blending contemporary music with that “Manila” sound.

Known for creating upbeat music and youthful melodies, Any Name’s Okay is a beloved alternative pop group. The quintet released its latest single _how the heart breaks_ last May, a ballad that explored a new, darker side of the band. Mixing city pop and OPM, ALYSON is surely a must-watch. Always in their suit and tie, the group combines fresh tunes and nostalgic vibes.

Rounding out Shang’s Fête stage is multi-awarded DJ, producer, and entrepreneur HOEST who’s expected to share a blend of house, techno, and electronic music to energize the crowd.
